Hi all,
I'm having trouble setting up some bouncy forks for my Sunn.
When I'm not on the bike, they are at full extension. When I get on it, they drop down to the stop. When I ride and lift the front, I get that horrible top out clunk!
I've set them up as per the recommendation below
http://xcrosseur.09.free.fr/Vtt/meca-obsys55.html
With around 3.5bar in the r/h leg, (slightly more than I need) and 5w oil in the l/h one, up to 12mm below the top after some up and down with the stanchion to get oil in the lower part.
The 'air' leg is not leaking either.
Hmmmm :?
There is no preload of any kind. Just a screw in the l/h leg top that doesn't seem to do anything except stop the oil coming out. I have tried adjusting it anyway, but no change. Would thicker oil cure this?
Can anyone help?
Thanks folks
Mike
